New 5×4 Vegas-themed title adds four Link&Win modifiers and four-tier jackpots, with a stated top payout of 10,000x.

The game includes four jackpots that can be enhanced by jackpot tokens in the base game and are awarded when diamonds are collected in each bonus round.
Dan Brown, Business Development Manager at Foxium, said: “There will always be a place for Vegas-themed slots, and for us, it is less about trying to replicate that style, and more about how we can rework it for the modern player.
